Great Regulars: And I created a way of writing where

writers event personas, I's and hes and shes who can say the things they're afraid to. And I didn't know until I wrote this that my approach to writing comes out of my dyslexia.

When I found out I won the prize, the kid in the dummy class that I was in was suddenly in conflict with this guy who had won a prize for his poetry that made him visible--for a moment at least. And it was so jarring, that I couldn't bring them together. But winning that prize really forced me to make peace and understand it.
